Very nice image!

Not sure whether Ryoko is going to secretly read Mihoshi's note, or startle 
her awake, although I'm sure either way will provide lots of mischief and 
amusement.
 

When I saw Ryoko's outfit, I had the oddest impression that I'd seen it 
before.  Obviously, that's not the case, however.  I suspect that the 
triangles along the sleeves may remind me of the similar design (although 
located elsewhere) on Ryoko's outfit in ep. 11 (when she was replaced by 
Zero).  For some reason, the type of outfit (and not just the 
colors/patterns) also seems to look familiar on her, although I can't for the 
life of me figure out why - I'm fairly certain that I've never seen her 
wearing anything like that before.
 

One other thing about these images - they all seem to show Ryoko somewhat 
quiet and calm (not lazy, however), which is almost the exact opposite of 
what one usually comes to expect from Ryoko, the expectation being either 
full of manic energy, or lazing around in the rafters.
